Both models feature a day/night mode, configurable compression ratios (JPEG, MPEG, Streaming), and auto white balance. Within an image, multiple motion detection zones can be defined with variable sensitivity (security and privacy zones). An I/O connector provides an interface to an external alarm sensor and peripheral equipment. Alarm notification automatically includes the date, time and camera IP address. Additional components, such as on-board memory buffers of 48MB – optionally 128MB – can be activated, if required.
Image transfer occurs via HTTP, FTP, RTP or Email. Password-protected camera functions as well as SLR lenses, connected by SLR K-Mount, are controlled via HTTP, XML-RPC, Telnet or Microsoft COM.
